This "funky", "amazing" science museum "turns adults into kids" with hundreds of "hands-on activities" that "deftly illustrate" the concepts behind "sound, light, biology, physics" and other subjects that "eluded you in high school"; so bring your "sense of fun" and schedule "at least half a day" – that way, you can indulge your "inner geek" and also "take a walk around" the picturesque Palace of Fine Arts; N.B. free on the first Wednesday of each month.
